Blasphemy. That's not what he said. 😁

Anyway, it was great to see live hockey, with fans, again. And while he wasn't exactly under siege, UPL made a few great saves.

Yeah it was nice to watch a little hockey. UPL was solid when he needed to be. That 2 on 1 save in the 1st was a very good stop.

It was nice to see Samuelsson bring out some of his nastiness last night, he needs to do that more during games.

Peterka Weissbach Samuelsson all looked good. Laaksonen looks to be rounding out. Why not, go get a look at some of the future. And Murray looked good to, really needs to keep working on his skating, he's got the hands, and is definitely not afraid to park his big A$$ in front.

Kid grows on you, hope he makes it. We need players that won't quit and just keep competing.

So 3 way trade with Kings, Flames and Sabres involving Jack and Johnny, eh?

ROUGH Trade Outline:
Jack in Calgary
Olofsson in Calgary (50% retained)
Johnny G in LA
Miller in LA

In Buffalo;
Zary, Flames '22-1st, Flames '23rd-1st, Lucic
Turcotte, Kings '22-1st, Kings '23-2nd, Brown

What do you think...close? Far away? Who's making out, who's paying too much?

Harsh 😅😅

Nikita Gusev, signed to PTO by TOR, is a one-dimensional offensive playmaking winger whose combination of horrible defensive play and non-existent finishing doomed his career with the Devils. #leafs https://t.co/yEzWDhthXL

Getting a really good feeling about Cozens. He's going to be special - a true leader. THE leader of our team.

Yes.
I did think of that too...they could send us Edler as well in te form of a Cap Dump.
Honestly, I don't know much about Edler, is Miller an upgrade?

It would seem to me that Miller is a goner during or after this season anyway. If LA views him as an upgrade...then hold 50% of Miller and take Edler back as he is an UFA at seasons end..as is Brown and Lucic too.

Lastly, I am not concerned about the Sabres this season. Move someone from L to R to cover for a throw-away season...next season, go get a 1st pairing partner for Dahlin.

Buf easily takes this imo, if that gives you a thought on where things stand with the other two. And if they did this, I would for sure OS Thomas for a second compensation contract. Buf would have 4 firsts, get a guy you know can play 2/3 line minutes in the future

If we are taking lucic, brown and eating money on olofsson I’d want byfield coming back from the kings instead of turcotte , it’s certainly close though.

Still very useful defensively and cheaper than miller

I had him on my FA wishlist to replace McCabe

Feels like you're making 2 trades and winning them both.

Tell you the truth think that RD comes in a Eichel trade and it's with Vegas.
